Siemens in the UK used to have an office in the town of Staines. If you rang them they'd answer with: "Siemens, Staines."
John Hoggard this is easily the best comment I’ve ever read
you sound like someone who would regularly go there and ring them just for shits and giggles :D
Not even kidding this made me lose my shit😂😂😂😂
But you pronounce it ziemens, not siemens. It's a German corporation.
@@matthewfelix1851 whoever was answering the doorbell/phone, probably didn't know that ;)
I like Brian. He's pretty charismatic on camera, certainly more so than your average electrician.
Dylan Lewis I know it’s shocking right
He's like Taran+Colton+Jon, all combined into one..it's weird. Some kind of amalgamation.
@@thegamerboy1000 *audible groan*
Praises be to Brian, Master of the Electric Arts
He's definitely a LTT fan.
Brian just tricked Linus into using his own materials 😂
You can tell he's a contractor lol
Shhhhh....
And labour too, he's a smooth criminal 😎
He saved so much money and effort having Linus go wild
Linus: "My screws are just as good as your screws!"
Also Linus: "Wait, let me see if I have better screws."
Also also Linus: "Well, that's.. fine then. Isn't it?"
“50 an hour for labor, 100 an hour if you wanna watch, 150 an hour if you wanna help”. That’s what this reminds me of.
300 an hour if you tried to fix it first.
Even if the electrician really did triple the rate he's still making out like a bandit since he can write off the charger as a business expense and conservatively made like 3000 dollars on the video considering the view count.
Who charges $50 an hour in labor? These days it's $100+
@@jbdragon3295 if you watched his video on air conditioning his house he said it cost him about $5k to do the job and was quote $25k to have it done professionally. That means essentially he was quoted for $20k in labor! Da fuck?!
And 500 if you tell me how to do it.
His laugh is very contagious. Very nice guest to have on the show
Reminds me of luke
The electrician and linus had good chemistry, I hope they can find some other projects to bring him on for
I reas that i hope they have a good life togather as a couple for ever after
Adding 2-4 more EV chargers at the LMG offices would be a neat project to bring him back for.
maybe the LAN center
Yeah...it was more like a "double act" kinda the "comic" and the "straight man".
I wouldn't be surprised if they already knew each other.
"...car reviews on an on-going basis, moving forward."
So, that was a lie.
Lol, just found this video again and yep. Wish he would review the Tesla Model 3, Chevy Bolt, etc.!
Right?
Sounds Musk-esque. And an order of magnitude more interesting to say than the truth.
Lie
still a lie
"I'll be safer this time, I brought an electrician". 9:40 Drills into his hand while wearing safety glasses.
lol
Better than pulling a Nick, when i was doing construction we had a dude put a ring shank nail through the knuckle of his thumb when he was putting exterior sheeting on a newly framed wall. Stuck himself right to the wall. He never lived that one down... He's union now 🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@jblob5764 I work in food service, and once had a guy stab his hand with a digital chicken thermometer.
And the Electrician proceeds to explain why its just fine to work on hot 240V service. And laughs at Linus for suggesting that maybe that isn't completely safe? Wow dude.
nice attention to detail
This episode was awesome!! Just remember, "cut towards your buddy, not your body".
I thought Linus was gonna slit his wrists.
"Towards your chum, not your thumb" - Ave
"My screw is longer and thicker"
Always cut away from you and towards Trott.
@@flussw r/unexpectedyogscast
Do more with that electrician that was legit fun
my suggestion is for him to get a tesla wall installed next
For real, he was great
Indeed, great episode, :)
put a charging station at work
yea, hire electrician bro
You need to hire Brian
he already works for them
IceDragon2442 rly?
JuJu Yee He doesn’t work for them but whenever they need any electrical work or a video involves electric work he’s ALWAYS there😂
@@robertetzenhouser Yeah they probably have him on retainer or something
@@fender10g I doubt that, he does work for other people as well.
Am i the only one who rewatches this every so often just to see the Brian and linus interactions they're too good.

Can we please have more projects with Linus and Brian the electrician?
Linus did hint about installing eV chargers at the ltt office
Yeeesss. This episode was great
Ye there video chemistry is great
Yes they should...
why don't invite #electroboom instead?
Linus in Oct 2018: "My intent is to do car reviews on an ongoing basis moving forward."
Me (an avid LTT watcher) in Sept 2020: "Lol"
F 😔
all this time later they are finally being made via LTT (not always him of course but...)
19:10
"May be not RBG, but it's G"
LOST IT!! LMAO
This electrician is great.
he needs to appear on LTT more often, he's funny af
We need this electrician in more videos
I love his laugh
He is a friend of mine. Awesome guy.
His voice is quite nice, i wouldn't mind it a bit if he got into radio or podcasting.
Can Brian the electrician come back for more episodes
i love that guy!
I want him to be a permanent edition
If we pester Linus enough we can make this a reality, let operation Brian the electrician commence. #bringbackbrian
...yes, yes,.. we want to see something sparkling!

@@MaxGr12 "You know I also love being close to breasts, that's another indication"
Brian is F'ing great Linus. You should hire that guy on
He doesn't want to because he has longer thicker screws.
Yeah great interaction between them, had me in lols
Was going here to say the same thing. That guy is cool and the play between them was natural
probably make more as an electrician than Linus could pay him..
Brian's laugh 😂😂😂😂😂 hire him to just laugh in the background of every TechLinked.
Seriously though can we get him in TechLinked?
I scrolled too much to find you, same idea just didn't want to write it again.
He probably makes more money as an electrician.
We need dis!
Props to Linus on Being Safe, The Electrician can loose his license because of working on live wire without proper equipment, arc flash burns are the worse.
9:38 I also like to organize using my vacation time. Its really relaxing to do and find things that were lost during busy days.
Please give Brian a job. He is awesome!!!
yeees please
Well as an electrician he already probably has a job, and likely a better payed one than at a TH-cam channel office. Although I'm sure LTT has great salaries nonetheless
He would take a huge pay cut. Linus pays his employees way below what these guy earn as an electrician
Miguel Angel - Linus could hire Brian to appear in videos as a contractor doing electrical jobs like this one. That’s the only way he could afford him.
If he's a union electrician (which most are) he's earning way more than Linus can pay him lol.
"It may not be straight but it's 22 inch long" - Linus, 2018
Just how I like it...
Thank god it is made by Semens , so no problem!
Perfect for me
Me on Grindr.
Iamcroop *siemens
I love these videos about electrical engineering in your home and the studio, it really teaches me a lot about how this stuff works inside the walls.
I really enjoy Linus's eagerness to learn. When he has someone that knows things he doesnt he gets all wound up. lots of respect for Linus's thirst for knowledge.
I love that he pays a contractor and then insist on using his own tools and doing most of the work himself. Haha. Electrician is awesome tho
i think it´s be the most annoying tipe of contractee posible, just let the contractor do its job in peace, linuses way its how accidents happens
Not sure how they do it up there but in the US its common to charge by the hour. If somebody wanted to waste time running around turning a 20 min job into a 2 hour one i would jump on it
of course if you charge by the hour let it waste all the time that he wants,
where im from (argentina) this kind of little jobs are charge by the work it self, so you want to do it quickly and be done with it
correct if this was a normal job but in this particular case, it is a major TH-cam channel who brought him on for a video.
@@user-neo71665 There's also the liability issue. If Linus electrocuted himself, he could sue the contractor.
You need to hire this guy he's hillarious! :D
Agreed!
Literally all the floatplane comments agree with you :D
+1
I mean. When will they need an on board electrician?
@@killerdonkey5750 custom built power supply
Just an observation Linus, but I would recommend that you get better insulation between your garage and the area above. if it's connected to the house (which I assume it is based on the fact that it's insulated at all), having a poor insulation layer is gonna make that room cold. also if you improve the insulation it would be good to also air seal that ceiling while your up there, because garages are subject to all sorts of fumes that can lower your in-home air quality.
I can so relate guys, thank you for all the entertainment in watching things get done :)
Hello from Greece
This electrician guy is great
It's nice to see that he humored Linus, I'm sure he was compensated, but it's still nice to see that he let Linus try and do most of the installation.

Dude has a premium radio voice.
@@jimbob9631 Indeed, he could do all the crazy electrical stuff on LMG
I've had that Siemens unit for 5 years to charge my BMWi3(gone now thankfully),my 2015 Spark EV and the same color Volt as yours but the 2017 model. Still a flawless product. Takes about 4-5 hours to charge the Volt. You can delay the start time up to 8 hours in 2 hour increments and it pulsates green while charging!
Yes, the Chevy Volt is discontinued. I purchased a used 2017 with around 20,000 miles on it and less than 1000 were gas. It seems like the previous owner was a "high-miler (obsessed with getting max electric range by frugal acceleration and breaking)" and the friction brakes felt like they had almost never been used. My new job is 40 miles away. New Job offered to install a charging port for me. I might get a second and in 2 years, I plan on getting a 2019.
Linus needs to hire this dude so he doesn’t blow up his studio😂
Ironchicken687 ! There are other people that can keep him from blowing up Linus media group xD
On this episode of linus finds a way to write of installation of a carcharger as a company expense
Eh.. I actually liked it a lot! Frankly I realized you don't need an electrician to do that either haha
@@ronald4life1 for your house insurance its best to have it at least verified by an electrician ( who can give a certified on paper)
On today’s episode we see Linus do Half the work and still get charged the same amount
@rogerwilco99 the U.S. standard is the asset has to be used more than 50% for business purposes, and the amount of the deduction is based on percentage of business use
@@spritsfal5088 it's purely about taxation. by adding this to company expenses he reduces the tax company will pay.
lol, I kill my main before touching the fuse-box too. Unless I'm just resetting a breaker or something, but I don't add/remove breakers with it hot, so I'm with ya there, Linus. Clean install for sure!
What is this about car reviews? lol, This was a year and a half ago and I haven't seen any car reviews here!
Why are you using armoured cable indoors ?
Safety, because it's going into the attic which is accessible and it'd be technically exposed otherwise
@@casualdanger Here in europe we only use armoured in farm installations
flinny OwO here in the middle east we don’t know what that is
Because it's linus proof
Cause it’s tuff like ASUS tuff
1:34
**Says he makes sure nothing is flammable**
**Literally has 3 cans of paint in the background**
and some clothing or something and a wooden door. The fire probably won't spread past the garage though.
Don't forget the cardboard box even closer in proximity
@Adamo Kóligo What?
@Adamo Kóligo 1) I have no idea what you are trying to say. 2) What the hell is "EOT"??
Frankly, if you're going to shoot videos at home, you should clean the Siemens off your wall first.
*Gähn*
Wheeze..!
i love the energy in the camera shootin' in this episode.
Thank you for making these videos. I use your videos as background noise while doing work
I like this Brian electrician guy, does stuff mostly right and it still works, just like Linus lmao I hope he helps on the office chargers install Linus said was gonna happen at some point
brian is what canadians should aspire to be
EMPLOY BRIAN FULL TIME
ALMOST. Uses black and red, instead of blue and black for AC.
@@fusseldieb in the UK we use brown and blue, so I guess you get different standards in different places
Harry Snell Brown and black we can tolerate, but using completely different color not
You know you've found success in life when you can monetise your chores and write off the equipment as a business expense
And he'll soon start making car reviews, that chevy is also for business.
Claudio Lluberes coming soon a Rob spaghetti and Linus team up to review the new technology in the latest super cars
But he is CEO so he can make anything a business expense
haha! Yep, I can't wait for Linus' kitchen renovation guide.
I, am an Electrician in The Netherlands and i must say , interesting to see how the installation work is done in Canada. but still glad that its done very different in my country . Hats off for Brain for making enjoyable installation vids with Linus like to see a lot more of it .
care to explain what he's doing differently to what you would have done?
That hanging ball lolz some driver
Make more videos like this
It was super fun to⌚
Hire him Linus. Hire him. Anyone who likes messing with you is a welcome addition to LTT.
Linus can't afford him.
He'd probabaly make a whole lot more doing what he does now than he would with Linus
"i don't that's how hiring works"
between $30-$50 + an hour. It's also really not hard to find work as an electrician, it has the highest death rate in the construction field.
Riley's camerawork reminded me a lot of The Office
OMG I can't unsee it. MICHAEL!
Riley did a great job shooting this.
Yeah what could go wrong only 240v breaker outlet and 30,000mah won’t do anything to you
@@AlexInvar What's updawg?
@@plagueless9829 30,000mah is a unit of capacity. you want 30 000ma or just 30A
Linus. If you still have the Volt you should know that it is not a hybrid but a full electric car known as an Extended Range Electric Vehicle. The gas generator only supplies electricity to run the electric motors in the car when required.
Linus: *says SIEMENS with literally perfect pronunciation*
also Linus: It's a shame they didn't try that name out in English
lol
He was commenting on how “Siemens” sounds like “semen” when pronounced with English pronounciation.
And his pronounciation wasn't perfect at all, the German “s” sounds like the English “z”.
In dutch it sounds perfectly normal as well
I wanna see Brian on the channel more, he's awesome
Agreed
Can everybody who agrees just spam the comments with love for Brian
@@stevenjames7082 YES PLZZZZ
Linus, can we keep him??
Theres a Siemens plant not far from me, they manufacture the rotor blades for wind turbines. Across the highway is a chemical plant called...climax. I shit you not. So we have both seimen and climax.
Lemme guess: before came the climax and then came the Siemens
@@iaial0 yep, first was freuhauf, a semi trailer manufacture. While it was running climax opened sometime in the eighties. After freuhauf closed, seimens opened in the mid 2000's.

A little off subject, but what about the PowerStroke and Cummings diesel engines?? LOL
wow, i like the armored cable. We have nothing like that where i live. But that breaker box looks so old fashioned. We are lightyears ahead here. ( yes, i am a sparky )
@16:20 I love the professional, fully certified, UL approved screwdriver, especially while working on live panel OMG
If it isn't CSA approved or at the least cUL, then it should go bye-bye
The longer this video goes on, the more I think Brian is not an electrician and is an LTT host who just cleared probation. 😂
My guess is he is Linus' friend or neighbour who happens to be an electrician. :D
In theory he could be both
Especially considering the visible lack of proper electrical tools, uninsulated screwdrivers, no wire strippers, etc etc.
@@Canuckrz don't know about Canada but in NZ that's standard sparky gear for the town contractor. Most of the "proper" tools are unnecessary, there was one old fella that cuts
through live wires with simple tin cutters since he knew what he was doing (don't try this at home kids)
@@HelloKittyFanMan. by simply watching the video, really. I mean every single plastic handle screwdriver that doesn't have some stupid metal running across the handle is insulated, but the ones sold for this very purpose had all the shaft covered in plastic as well, to avoid any slips or touching sides.
Duuude... let this man read some epic stuff with his voice!
Sounds like Sam Elliott's voice.
He's thicc, no homo btw
Just don't touch the shiny is already epic
Linus Tech Tips Honest Trailer then?
I was about to comment this aswell!
Hi Linus! Love your content! I'm a Tesla owner if that blue wire is ground please wire it up because an EV charger without ground a storm away from frying.
Estimated charge by this LV2 set up for the volt is 2.5 hours tops :) welcome to the EV community that was a wise purchase
The blue wire is not ground and is not required in this installation.
Hey linus, do you plan on an update video soon? Its almost been a year and i am curious as to the difference the charger has made to power consumption in your house aswell as comparing it to how much gas usage you would have used over the year instead.
Honestly this video was frocking hilarious. Wish we could see more unscripted Linus projects. Even just diy chores would be hilarious I feel.
Yeah. I mean. On the main channel. Plus super fun is pretty dead.
This is 100% not scripted and i know that for sure
TheRedGamerFPV auto correct fail.
Electrician: Now you can poke something though the hole

linus seems like a really funny dude to work on projects and hang out with
Wind Dancer Productions: "We're going to reboot Home Improvement"
LTT: "Here's Linus's audition tape for Tim"
9:42 screwing a screw with your hand behind the piece of wood. Thank god they weren't "too" long....
13:42 basically slitting your wrists if your hand slips.
Was thinking Linus must be using his fitbit as a wrist protector.
Could learn some things from Colin Furze, like he isn't even wearing his safety tie
Well he said his name was Linus not that he was smart. XD
holy fuck you guys are annoying xd
I was cringing so hard when he was cutting AT his wrists...
9:40 OSHA-approved hand positioning right there.
It's perfect to get some tactile feedback on fastener throughput... 😛
I wish I would have seen this before doing mine. However, I got it done and it works well. Made sure everything was done safely and right after research. That’s it. Do your research.
Knowing the time would’ve made the video perfect, but watching Linus with the box cutter near his wrist suspense filled lol
Linus should hire him, they have similar demeanour, except he actually can wire shit.... also, he is funny at times....
Loved his laugh, i hope he shows up again
He would take a huge pay cut. Linus pays his employees way below what this dude earns as an electrician
@@malfaroangel3896 yeah but it's fun
Crazy coding cat Because an electrician get paid extremely well. Whether starting off or being full time. In Canada the average salary is $39 an hour. No way in hell Linus pays his employees that amount. He mention in a video how strictly budget the employees salaries are
@@malfaroangel3896 Wait $39 an hour?!
Ok I need to go renegotiate my salary
9:40 Linus laughing and casually drilling towards his hand and almost into his hand
Nope, he knew how long his screw is
still not a recomended practice but you have a piont and i do it too so i cant complain xD
@@gabrielsosa3753 Yeah, you're absolutely right. It freaked me out too when i saw him doing that, but well... That's Linus :D

Stopped watching after the second. Gets a bit cringy when every single LTT is laced with them.
95% of my job as an electrician
@Nathan Dentry idem lol
This whole channel is a big sexual innuendo.
I would like to see the average electric bill for LTT...
Its about 13 kilowatts/ 24 hours in use
I have a volt and a leaf my electric bill is about $150 a month.
Brian Anderson That's actually not THAT bad
Solar panel
Based on the charger usage, it is comparable to running a small space heater while the car is charging
In all my days of wiring... two houses before I was 15.... I have never seen a breakerbox so cable managed and neat.
A little too relaxed. I did slip from the screwdriver once working with the breakers up and even tho i didn't shock myself, it was scary hahaha. Since then i just cut the power.
18:22 Your cats are gone?!?!?!? Man...

@@RiamiAurum Carpenter here and regardless if screw is longer or shorter. Under no circumstances do u put your hand behind the board. Faulty boards can easily split and pierce the hand
This guy's a dumbass.
This video is impossible to take seriously with the deep voice fo Brian and the high voice of Linus
Linus, the included charger you have can do both level 1 and level 2. it just need a plug adapter.
Looks like Brian gonna join in a short time Linus-Team...
Thats how success comes :-)
Linus media group becomes Linus everything group? Or they start an electricity related TH-cam channel
Well, it is not so difficult to install computer-stuff as an electrician.... Combine that with some Linus-Humor and thats it, next video is done for you guys.
He would have to get a huge pay cut to join Linus Tech Tips. Electricians make a good amount of money
@@malfaroangel3896 I'm sure LTT staff are well payed. I'm sure it would be similar. Hi Brian! I like your mojo.
That voice is gold!
Did Linus' hand placement at 9:40 seriously worry anyone else?
Lol
I was worried about it, if the screw is longer than the wood plank he will hurt his hand.
And at 13:50 where he's slicing towards his wrist after chirping buddy for cutting towards his stomach 😂
stabby stabby drill
More paranoid about the hacksaw and thumb under it lol
One of my favorite Linus videos
this has been thoroughly enjoyable, bring Brian back!!
"this is the corner of my garage with nothing flammable" 1:29 cans of paint on the floor 2 feet away from his charger
could be acrylic paint
Water based paint is far more common than oil based paint due to very fact it is,not very flammable.
And a hover board with Lithium-ion batteries in it that combust as soon as they come into contact with water...
+ cardboard box and wood wall
@@Cowcow211 Then instead you'll electrocute everything and consequently set the house on fire since its made out of wood. Even worse than oil based paint.
They didn't pay that contractor enough to deal with Linus... smh
FOR REAL
Nah you use contractor pricing. I do the work and you watch +10%, I do the work and you suggest things +15%, I do the work and you help +25%.
Not like the next person that sees someone called "Brian" that knows of this video will get him work or anything like that.
He seemed to be having a great time, and he's paid hourly... I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Linus: "This is where I stop participating cause i don't trust myself in there."
also Linus: *I help now*
The amount of innuendos in this video is amazing
German being my first language, I never thought about how the brand name Siemens would sound in english. Linus bringing it up made me have a good chuckle - it is an unfortunate name to pronounce in english.
It also promted me to look up when Siemens was founded, since checking your brand name in other languages while not beeing standard is at least somewhat done these days - and turns out Siemens was founded 1847.... let that sink in... they've been around before both great wars and even before the american civil war. Darn they got some history.
And are one of the biggest electrical companies of the world ...so... quite impressive
@@Yzariel Siemens is quite big huh
That explains how seimens got everywhere. I mean i go to a hospital, and i see seimens on every machine they have; their walls, ceilings, floors-all covered in semens. Guess that's why they choose white for most of their equipment.
I needed a few moments to understand, why Siemens is funny for them, because i'm from Germany, too
Lang lang ists her
As a professional electrician, I approve of this electrician. Also he's fun af and does well on camera
Rory Christel he might be a great guy, but his electrical practices are way off. One, he should of isolated the entire switchboard before removing the panel, two, was was not using the correct screw drivers.
daniel5620 regular klien screwdrivers are fine on 120VAC, it's more than sufficient insulation for that voltage. And lol at isolating a breaker panel, how green are you?
@@daniel5620 Uncommon in Canada to turn off panels when working on them. Uninsulated screwdrivers are also the norm here. Both practices are changing slowly. We rely heavily on our CSA steeltoe boots which are 10000v rated as long as they have the omega symbol present.
Daniel M honestly, you're not using your boots. Pretty much any pair of thick rubber soles would work at these voltages. I can grab a live 277VAC wire while wearing my Vibram sole McRae's and still not get hit, as long as I'm mindful about where the rest of my body is.
totally forgot your on 120 try that on 250 in the uk and its all kinds of fun
In center Europe, Czech republic, we have in allmost every house 3x400V or if you want 3x230V betwen faze and zero. Normaly its on 25Amps fuze so we have at home 17kW of power.
The electricians voice is radio ready. He sounds amazing.
When Brian put on the cap I fully expected Linus to undo it just so be could put his cap on.
